Jobbeschreibung

Overview

G+D makes the lives of billions of people around the world more secure. We create trust in the digital age with integrated security technologies in three business areas: Digital Security, Financial Platforms and Currency Technology. We have been a reliable partner for our customers for over 170 years with our innovative solutions for SecurityTech. We are an international technology group and traditional family business with over 14,000 employees in 40 countries. Creating Confidence is our path to success. Trust is the basis of our co-operation within G+D. Maybe soon for you too?

We are convinced that various central banks will introduce a digital version of their currency, a so-called Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) like the digital euro in the coming years. This will create an entirely new market for products and services that fit perfectly with Giesecke+Devrient\'s product portfolio. It especially requires an outstanding team to deliver a disruptive innovation of that magnitude. For this, we have set up a team as an independent start-up within G+D advance52 GmbH that has a clear mission for growth and to create a substantial product business. During the next year we are scaling rapidly to meet market demands, and the Contract Manager will play a key role in overseeing customer contracts, ensuring compliance, and mitigating risks throughout the contract lifecycle.
